QuacksO's definitions

Tieland

A country in The Orient where business-attire neckwear is produced.
I wonder if most folks in Tieland act more formal than some other countrymen, since their main industry involves dressing up?

low commotion

A "hushed hullabaloo" response from a crowd of amazed onlookers when witnessing da movement of a creature or machine from one locale to another.
Maybe a group of observers watching a newly-unveiled conveyance-contraption proceeding forwards and/or backwards would indeed start out responding with merely a "low commotion", but soon they would likely give a rousing cheer and really start noisily jumping up and down in gleeful excitement.

Noisy Night

What it must have actually been like "away in a manger", since there were lots of farm animals there, too, and no doubt Jesus was himself squalling his head off just like normal newborn babies do.
If Achmed had his way, he would probably have a "noisy night" on Christmas Eve, too, since he'd be setting off "jingle bombs".

sueicide

What committing a crime or admitting wrongdoing would be if it involved any greedily litigious individuals.
I would never wanna act with careless selfishness like Tronald Dump has --- that'd be sueicide!

Clapton Crunch cereal

A peanut-buttery kiddie-favorite breakfast-food dat's endorsed by da famous "Great Eric" music man.
Just because Clapton Crunch cereal is enthusiastically touted by having da Great Eric "singing da praise" for it, this does not automatically mean dat it's truly a healthy food for humans... I would still wanna check da ingredients before I started gleefully shoveling huge spoonfuls of it into my mouth!

Coca-loha

Da fizzy brown soda-drink dat lei-festooned Hawaiian belles bring you upon arrival at da Islands.
Hawaiians ladies are big on dancing, so if one of dem brings you a big glass of Coca-loha when you arrive, be sure to drink it right away, so dat da caffeine in it will give you some get-up-and-go in case she asks you to dance wif her.

conflict of interest

An unfair-to-the-customer motivation that money-hungry banks have to maintain someone's having to make payments on a loan for as long as possible.
I borrowed a thousand dollars from a local credit-union so that I could pay some local tradespeople to perform much-needed repairs on my home and vehicle. But then as it turned out, these "over-booked with repair-jobs" folks were not able to get to my repairs as soon as they'd expected, and so I didn't need the loaned money nearly so soon as I'd thought I would; I realized that I'd likely be able to pay the carpenters and mechanics "on my own" just with extra-frugality-saved funds over the next few months. So I merely returned the thousand dollars to the credit union within just two or three months after I'd taken out the loan; the clerk seemed none to pleased, since they'd only made about 22 bucks extra in the deal, instead of maybe close to a hundred if I'd taken a year to pay it all back, the way they had expected me to. Guess there was a little conflict of interest there.
